"My administration has taken the most aggressive action in modern history to prevent the spread of this illness in the United States. We are ready. We are ready. Totally ready. On January 31st, I ordered the suspension of foreign nationals who have recently been in China from entering the United States. An action which the Democrats loudly criticized and protested and now everybodyâs complimenting me saying, âThank you very much. You were 100% correct.â Couldâve been a whole different story. But I say, so letâs get this right. A virus starts in China, bleeds its way into various countries all around the world, doesnât spread widely at all in the United States because of the early actions that myself and my administration took against a lot of other wishes, and the Democratsâ single talking point, and you see it, is that itâs Donald Trumpâs fault, right? Itâs Donald Trumpâs fault. No, just things that happened."
